What Nitter was to Twitter and Invidious is to YouTube, Lingva Translate is to Google Translate: a privacy front-end delivering the service's full capability while cutting Google out of the loop between you and your text. Built on Next.js with TypeScript and Chakra UI, it uses the purpose-built Lingva Scraper to fetch translations from Google Translate without your browser ever touching a Google-related service - no cookies, no tracking, no account, while retaining what makes Google Translate hard to give up: 100+ languages with the translation quality of Google's production models, unlike offline engines that trade privacy for accuracy. The clean interface covers automatic source-language detection, text-to-speech audio playback for pronunciations, definitions and examples, and light/dark themes. For developers, every instance doubles as a translation API: a RESTful endpoint at /api/v1/:source/:target/:query returns JSON translations, an audio endpoint serves TTS buffers, and a full GraphQL API at /api/graphql exposes translations, audio, and language lists for richer integrations - all unmetered on your own instance. Deployment is a single stateless container with one environment variable for the site domain; defaults for theme and language pair are configurable. GPL-licensed, and popular as the translation backend for privacy-respecting apps.

ntfy sends push notifications to your phone or desktop with a single curl command: publish a message to any topic and every subscriber receives it instantly, no signup or API key required. Over 31,000 GitHub stars and 106 releases since 2021 back a server supporting five priority levels mapped to distinct notification sounds and vibration patterns, emoji tags for visual classification, click actions that open URLs when tapped, and up to three action buttons per notification for view, HTTP callback, broadcast, or clipboard copy operations. File attachments push images from surveillance cameras, documents, or any binary payload directly to mobile devices. Subscriptions work through JSON streams, Server-Sent Events, WebSockets, or raw text, with server-side filtering by priority, tags, and message ID. Authentication enforces topic-level access control through Basic Auth, Bearer tokens, or query parameters, with a built-in user and ACL management system. UnifiedPush compatibility lets ntfy serve as a push distributor for Mastodon, Matrix, and other federated services. Web Push via VAPID keys delivers browser notifications without the mobile app. The server ships as a single statically linked Go binary or Docker image supporting amd64, armv7, and arm64 architectures, consuming 30-50 MB RAM at idle with SQLite-backed message caching. Integrations include Grafana, Prometheus Alertmanager, Uptime Kuma, Home Assistant, and Ansible Semaphore. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. Apache 2.0 / GPLv2 dual-licensed.
